Sigh. If only THOSE TWO had been Game 6 and Game 7.

I know he's not beloved here, but really have to tip your cap to how Castellanos has stepped up and been the most consistent and clutch offensive player without Harper. (Yes, Marsh has been extremely good too, but Castellanos has done it from the cleanup spot)

Great game and thank you guys for the kind words. Kids had a blast and seeing Castellano's moon shot in person was a thing of beauty. In addition, it was nice watching the Astros fans start to file out in the 6th.

The only downside of the game was Turner. I'm sure he looks terrible on TV, but seeing him in person was eye opening. His mechanics are all messed up. They may have to sit him for a game or two to clear his head.

All in all, nice to take the first two against the Stros.

That's fantastic. So glad you got to go and have a great time.

Not a popular sentiment right now, but Turner will turn this around and be a standout player for this team. I've seen a lot of great players in dismal slumps over the decades as a Phillies fan. If they were great to begin with, they always rebound eventually.

Phillies are 4-0 since they introduced that adorable black puppy to the organization as a mascot

I wish, but I promised my kids we'd take them to the Galveston Train Museum for their annual Railfest :)
